While it can be argued that at least most third parties are taking Hasbro and TakaraTomy's IP and making something new with it, then there's the murkier realm of flat-out knockoffs of existing products. Reports are coming in that such a product is on the horizon: an upscaled knockoff of MP-08 Grimlock. Coming in at 29.5 centimeters, or ever so slightly shy of a foot tall, Robot Kingdom says they will not be carrying this figure but brings you the photos for educational purposes. As do we- keep reading for the mirrored images! I kind of wish the Dino Mode shot had a G1 Grimlock for full size comparison.
